From skits to songs, animations to acts of giving, this unique children’s film festival encourages young filmmakers to create a video that shows what it means to be a mensch, both today and throughout history.

If your kids need a creative and meaningful project this July, the Jewish Kids Film Festival might just be your summer lifesaver. Jewish children ages 5–10 and their families are invited to participate in this new online initiative to make and submit short videos celebrating what it means to be a mensch—and there’s still time to enter before the July 31 deadline.
